The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is offering this grant under the Cooperative Ecosystem Study Unit (CESU) program; recipients must be CESU participants. This grant is for conducting a Rapid Ecoregional Assessment (REA) in Alaska’s Yukon Lowlands-Kuskokwim Mountains-Lime Hills. The REA aims to provide broad-scale information for developing habitat conservation strategies for native plants, wildlife, and aquatic species on public lands. This data will inform land use planning, environmental analysis, and decision-making on public land uses like development, recreation, and conservation. The project will assemble and synthesize critical information to support federal land management.
